Overview

This final stage of our Thames Path walk starts at Rotherhithe Pier and passes through dockland and on to the Cutty Sark at Greenwich. From Greenwich we follow the river on a loop around the O2 Arena and then finally to the Thames Barrier. There is a cafe and toilets along the first part of the route. We are walking on good paths which may have puddles after rain. Bring a packed lunch and drink.

The walk can be shortened to 3 miles by leaving at the Cutty Sark and using stations in Greenwich.
